Dear Guest,

On behalf of the Executive Councils of the Association for Academic Surgery (AAS) and the Society of

University Surgeons (SUS), we are delighted to invite you to Jacksonville, FL for the 11th Annual Academic

Surgical Congress (ASC).

Over the past 11 years the ASC has become the premier gathering place for surgeon-scientists—offering

unparalleled opportunities for scientific exchange and networking with peers. Each year the ASC registration

grows (topping 1,500 last year) and the program has become more diverse, with programming relevant to those

interested in basic science, education, health policy, outcomes research, global health, leadership, and many

other topics relevant to academic surgery.

This year’s program, led by Kasper Wang, MD of the SUS and Adil Haider, MD, MPH of the AAS, promises to

be the most diverse, vibrant, and exciting yet! This year the AAS Founders lecture will be presented by John

Birkmeyer, MD and the SUS Joel J. Roslyn lecture by Mary Hawn, MD. We also invite you to attend each of

the AAS and SUS Presidential Sessions, which will include cutting-edge talks on academic career development

and health care policy. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we hope that you will develop new friendships

and collaborations, and that these new relationships will enhance your goals of performing the highest quality

research and improving patient care.

The combination of cutting-edge science, dynamic speakers, and rich mentoring programs for students,

residents and junior faculty will provide a week full of learning and numerous opportunities to connect with

colleagues in an engaging city!

We look forward to seeing you in Jacksonville!

CME Worksheet


A. Identifying Conflicts of Interest

The ASC Conflict of Interest Committee has implemented the following process towards identifying potential conflicts of interest. 1. Members of both AAS and SUS Committees involved in the planning of the Academic Surgical Congress, including the

Core Group, must provide a financial disclosure. These disclosures are sent to the committee in advance of each committee meeting/conference call. Attendees are reminded about the disclosure policy at each committee meeting, and any committee member with a conflict is asked to recuse him or herself from the discussion of any relevant CME activities.

2. Invited faculty for the Academic Surgical Congress must provide their financial disclosures upon invitation to serve as faculty. This information is forwarded to the Conflict of Interest Committee, who then determines whether or not a potential conflict exists.

3. For abstract submissions for the scientific session, all content authors must provide disclosures upon abstract submission. Abstracts are peer reviewed in a blinded fashion by multiple reviewers and are selected for presentation based on scientific merit. All disclosures which indicate a potential conflict are provided to the Conflict of Interest Committee for review. No content author may be an employee of a commercial interest.

4. All speakers at the Academic Surgical Congress must display a list of financial disclosures on the first slide of their presentation and disclosures are printed in the final program materials.

B. Managing Potential Conflicts of Interest

The ASC Conflict of Interest Committee has implemented several mechanisms to manage conflicts of interest prior to an educational activity. 1. Recusal, such as the committee member recusing him or herself from discussion of CME activities, and/or oversight by the

Committee Chair.

2. The ASC Conflict of Interest Committee reviews all invited faculty and abstract author disclosures, and their respective proposed course outlines/faculty lists and abstracts. The disclosure form requires faculty/authors to provide management suggestions if there is a relationship with a commercial entity. If there is a potential conflict cited, this information is forwarded to the ASC Conflict of Interest Committee, who is responsible for determining whether or not a conflict exists and if so, how to manage this conflict.

3. If a conflict is determined, then a notice is sent via email to the faculty member/author from the ASC Program Chairs, requiring them to adhere to the management technique. Management techniques include providing an explanation of the potential conflict, changes to the presentation, recusing him or herself from the presentation, and/or submitting the presentation in advance of the ASC for peer review.

4. During the session, the Session Moderators will be notified which faculty were reviewed for potential conflict and are asked to observe the presentations and make note of commercial bias. If any is perceived, this is immediately reported to the ASC staff and the Moderator should also take steps to clarify this during the actual session by asking the faculty member/presenter to provide an explanation.

5. All ASC attendees are asked to make note of perceived commercial bias in the immediate post activity evaluations. The ASC Conflict of Interest Committee will investigate substantive concerns.

He received his undergraduate degree from Union College, and received his M.D. from Albany Medical College. He

completed his Surgical Internship, Residency, and a Research Fellowship at the University of California/Los Angeles. He then joined the faculty at UCLA where he received national recogni-tion for his research, teaching and clinical expertise. Joel was an established researcher in the field of gallstone pathogen-esis, and a nationally and internationally respected expert in pancreatic and biliary disease. He had been funded continu-ously for his research by the Veterans Administration and the National Institutes of Health.

In 1992, Joel and his family moved to Philadelphia where he became Chairman of the Department of Surgery at the Medical College of Philadelphia, and after the merger with Hahnemann School of Medicine, he became the surgical leader of the new Allegheny University of the Health Sciences. During this short period in Philadelphia, Joel had built an outstanding faculty, attracting a number of excellent senior staff, and most importantly in his eyes, recruiting and nurturing the careers of several outstanding young surgeons.

Joel was a valued active member of the Society of University Surgeons. He and his research fellows had a long track record of presentations before the Society. He served as a Coun-cillor-At-Large for three years and President of the Society for the year 1995. Joel was a friend to all of us in the Society and left us with his great faith in humanity.

For those who knew Joel, his memory will live on forever. However, in recognition of his leadership, his contribution and his friendship, the SUS has chosen to provide a lasting memory of Joel. Joel will be recognized at each SUS Meeting by the provision of an annual Invited Commentary, reserved for a superannuating member, named in honor of Joel.

In his basic study, Jen-Tsung Yang, along with his colleagues, focused on discovering the prediction factors of stroke. They reported a novel finding that blood urea nitrogen /creatinine ratio, a marker of dehydration status, was an independent

predictor of stroke-in-evolution. Blood viscosity and urine specific gravity were also the prediction risk factors for neurological deterioration following acute ischemic stroke. MRI diffusion-perfusion study could be used for rapid detec-tion of dehydration status. Jen-Tsung Yang also targeted glucose level in stroke patients. He investigated whether a more aggressive control of blood sugar by continuous glucose monitor system can improve hemorrhagic stroke outcome which has theoretical benefits of decreasing oxidative stress.

Association for AcademicSurgery Foundation

The Association for Academic Surgery Foundation (AASF) partnerswith the Association for Academic Surgery (AAS) to provide monetarysupport for surgical research through grants to surgeon scientists and toorganizations which support surgical research and surgical researcheducation.

The AASF is one of few non-profit organizations that support the researchefforts of surgeon-scientists. This support is critical to translate newdiscoveries into clinical advancements for the patients we serve. Withoutsupport, "would be" surgeon scientists choose to limit the scope of theirpractice to clinical service. Surgeon-scientists have an amazing trackrecord of medical discoveries from principles of antisepsis and anesthesiato surgical procedures such as the Blalock-Taussig shunt. The loss ofsurgeon-scientists is an alarming trend, which risks the loss of significantadvancements in surgical care going forward. This threat is largely due toa lack of available funding.

The mission of the AASF is to expand sources offunding for surgicalresearch. The AAS and AASF partner to provide support for the followingGrants/Awards/Programs:

• The Association for Academic Surgery Foundation ResearchFellowship Award

• AAS Student Research Awards• AAS Student Travel Grants• West African Fundamentals of Research and Career

Development Course• Academic Surgical Congress Outstanding Medical Student

Award• Academic Surgical Congress Presentation and Manuscript

Winter 2015

This has been a successful year for the AAS Foundation (AASF), as our fund assets have increased due to your contributions and to the generosity of the AAS Council. We are nearing our goal of reaching $1 million in the AASF fund and we ask you to please help us reach that goal before the end of this year.

2016 will mark the 50th anniversary of the Association for Academic Surgery. In celebration of our golden anniversary, we invite you to join us in recognizing our first AAS President, Dr. George D. Zuidema. Back in 1966, the AAS was formed and the first officers were elected. Dr. Zuidema was one of those early visionary leaders dedicated to supporting the young surgical scientists who became the leaders of the future. Donate today in recognition of Dr. Zuidema by visiting our website or return the enclosed gift form with your contribution.

Every gift received helps keep surgical research active in institutions across the country. Every donation is extremely helpful, as the number of supporters is as important as the amount of each contribution. As a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization, every dollar of support to the AASF is deductible for tax purposes according to the law. You may donate or pledge your support over time and all gifts will be gratefully accepted and acknowledged.

All donors to this campaign in honor of AAS’ 50th anniversary will receive a special recognition ribbon to wear while at the Academic Surgical Congress in Jacksonville next February. Join us in celebrating 50 years of AAS and continue the tradition of supporting AASF to ensure funding is available for young surgical investigators in this country. Your donations have never been more important.

On behalf of the AASF Board of Directors, thank you in advance for your support.
